Sundog

There's an old folk beliefthat demands a sudden gift upon spotting a sundogand one that says it brings good luck on a long journey;I have only words to toss into the chilly air of a November sunsetand this thought of you that stayslong after the turkey vulture, like a plane, disappears from sight.

Great shot. Down on the Oregon coast, at sunset, all beach walkers stop and watch the last few minutes. Once in a great while is a magic "green-flash" as the sun disappears ... possibly the same phenomenon ..
